Elderly is a fragile age, where they are both physically and psychologically weak, so they need proper physical, social and psychological care during this period. Ageing is considered a problem, if the old peoples are taken as burden by the family members and society. In Nepal the older population is increasing both in terms of absolute numbers as well as proportion of the total population which is estimated to be double by 2017.
